 Feng, who opened with a 66 on Thursday, and Park were at 11-under
131 on the par-71 Grey Silo Golf Course. One shot behind was
American Michelle Wie, who shot at 67 after opening with a 65.
Feng had six birdies and no bogeys in the second round.
"Well, I think I have a habit that I don't really look at a
scoreboard during my play, so until you tell me, I don't know I'm
leading," Feng said. "Of course I'm really happy about my playing
today because it's a bogey-free round again, six birdies. I think I
did pretty well."
Park, the co-leader with Wie after the first round, also was steady
with five birdies and no bogeys. Park won the event last year in a
playoff against Angela Stanford.
"I putted really a lot better than last couple weeks this week,
yesterday and today," Park said. "Even if everything's not going in,
I see it going really close to the hole. So I'm really happy with my
stroke and I just need to hit more shots a little bit more closer
because there's obviously a lot of opportunities here. Just trying
to make a lot of birdies."
Anna Nordqvist shot the low round of the tournament so far with a
7-under 64 and moved into fourth place at 133.
"I think I hit all fairways and all greens, so that makes it a
little bit easier," Nordqvist said. "I'm a little bit disappointed
with the last couple holes because I hit a lot of good putts that
didn't go in. Last one I left it about a roll short dead in the
middle."
Nordqvist, bidding for her third victory of the year, carded seven
birdies and no bogeys.

Xi Yu Lin of China rounded out the top five at 8 under after a
second consecutive 67.
South Korean Inbee Park, ranked No. 2 in the world, was in a group
at 7-under 135 after shooting a 66.
American Stacy Lewis, the world's No. 1 ranked player, fell off the
pace at 4-under 138 after shooting a 69 for the second day in a row.
